Button html triggering active keyboard on IOS? - html

Question

We have built a site with a login page - login page is a simple form in field sets - annoyingly when using an iPad the keyboard is triggered whenever pressing the button - it stays active as the next page is loaded - i can understand why - following is the form code - is there any way to disable this functionality?
<section>
<h3>Login</h3>
<form method="post" action="/Login" novalidate="novalidate" _lpchecked="1"> <fieldset>
<label class="ui-front legend icon-img-inside">
<label for="FormModel_UserName">User Name</label>
<input type="text" value="" name="FormModel.UserName" id="FormModel_UserName" data-val-required="Please provide your User Name" data-val="true" aria-required="true" aria-describedby="FormModel_UserName-error" class="input-validation-error" aria-invalid="true">
<span data-valmsg-replace="true" data-valmsg-for="FormModel.UserName" class="field-validation-error"><span id="FormModel_UserName-error" class="">Please provide your User Name</span></span>
<img alt="Icon: Person" src="/css/img/icons/icon-user.svg">
</label>
</fieldset>
<fieldset>
<label class="ui-front legend icon-img-inside">
<label for="FormModel_Password">Password</label>
<input type="password" name="FormModel.Password" id="FormModel_Password" data-val-required="Please provide your Password" data-val="true" aria-required="true" class="input-validation-error" aria-describedby="FormModel_Password-error">

<img alt="Icon: Pencil" src="/css/img/icons/icon-pencil.svg">
</label>
</fieldset>
<div data-valmsg-summary="true" class="validation-summary-errors"><ul> <li>Please provide your User Name</li><li>Please provide your Password</li> </ul></div> <fieldset>
<button class="button" name="submit" type="submit">
<i class="key"></i>
<span>Login</span>
</button>
</fieldset>
<!-- Javascript detection -->
<span class="result-login" id="result"></span>

Answer 1

You could try to disable native, default submit process and do submiting with js,, something like this:
document.getElementsByClassName('button')[0].onclick = function(e){
e.preventDefault();
document.getElementById('frm1').submit();
}
see the code here, I changed some tag names, look the html pane also..: http://codepen.io/mkdizajn/pen/EgmPQR?editors=1010
I can't see this live and test but I hope that helps..
